Summer 2025

 Holiday STEM Academy



Join us for 8 unforgettable days of creative exploration, science fun and LEGO Engineering — including both hands-on crafting and Robotics.


From LEGO engineering and robotics to science experiments and creative crafts, children will explore the worlds of STEM through themed adventures designed to spark curiosity and confidence.

Each day brings a new challenge — come for one, or experience the whole journey.

Designed for curious minds aged 6–12.



 

Dates & Themes:

🧱 WEDNESDAY 23 JULY – Creators of Roblox & Barbie’s Worlds

(Non-Robotics STEM + Crafts)

Design it. Craft it. Live the adventure.


Children create their dream worlds using cardboard, LEGO bricks, crafts and figures. From designing maps to building mini cities and filming movie clips, imagination will run wild in this storytelling and building bonanza.



🔬 THURSDAY 24 JULY – The Greatest Science Show

(Non-Robotics, STEM Experiments)

Explosive fun with fizz, colour and mystery.


Children become showstopping scientists as they explore the wonders of hands-on science. Through exciting experiments and creative teamwork, they'll develop a long lasting interest for science - investigating reactions, testing predictions and ending the day with a spectacular science-themed performance to wow their peers.



🏗 FRIDAY 25 JULY – Engineering World

(Non-Robotics, STEM Challenges)

Design, build, test – then do it again.


Children become young innovators as they explore real-world challenges through creative engineering. Using LEGO and everyday materials, they’ll design, test and refine their own inventions — learning how future engineers solve problems and bring big ideas to life.



MONDAY 28 JULY – Time Travellers

(Robotics + Creative Building)

Travel through time with LEGO, stories and code.


Children will journey through the Past - Present- Future as they explore key moments in history using imaginative LEGO builds and creative storytelling. They’ll then build and program a time-travelling Robot to carry them between eras — finishing the day by filming a short trailer of their Robots historical adventures.



🤖 TUESDAY 29 JULY – LEGO Creators

(Robotics + Marketing Fun)

Invent a robot — then pitch it like a pro.


Learn how robots work, explore simple machines, then build a custom robot with your own twist. Children will learn the basics of marketing, developing a creative marketing pitch, thinking like young inventors and entrepreneurs. It's never too early to be a STEM entrepreneur.



🎭 WEDNESDAY 30 JULY – Under the Spotlight

(Robotics + Performing Arts)

Lights - LEGO - Action! Design your own festival of creativity.


Children will use the Masterpiece map to imagine and build a vibrant festival, complete with music stages, art zones and theatre performances. They’ll design and program themed LEGO Robots — from ballerinas to spinning art machines — and bring the whole event to life through storytelling, collaboration and a showcase of their own creative performances.



🚀 THURSDAY 31 JULY – Galactic Makers of Doctor Who

(Robotics + Space Exploration)

From Earth to Mars in one epic day.


Create astronaut badges and build a model of the International Space Station using crafts and LEGO. Then blast off to Mars to create rovers and rockets, finishing with mission trailers and posters. Children will explore very exciting astronomy and astrophysics concepts in a playful way.



🏎 FRIDAY 1 AUGUST – Robo Racers: LEGO Grand Prix Day

(Robotics + Stop Motion)

Start your engines for the ultimate LEGO Robotics Race.


Children build and code their own race cars, design a racing circuit and take part in thrilling time trials and finals.
